How Control Predicts Happiness According to Angus Campbell

The highest form of wealth is the ability to wake up every morning and say, “I can do whatever I want today.”

People want to become wealthier to make them happier. Happiness is a complicated subject because everyone’s different.  But if there’s a common denominator in happiness -- a universal fuel of joy -- it’s that people want to control their lives. 

The ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want, for as long as you want, is priceless. It is the highest dividend money pays.
